The on‐ground feasibility of a waterless barrier to stop the spread of invasive cane toads in Western Australia
Abstract Modeling suggests that excluding invasive cane toads from artificial water points (e.g., pastoral dams) along an arid coastal corridor in Western Australia would create a “waterless barrier” halting their spread. In this study, we explored one critical assumption of these models: that toads...
